Self-Assessment

My PowerPoint was about family. I thought my PowerPoint was pretty good. I
didn’t explain the definition of family very well with words, but I think between my
pictures and my chart I did a good job of explaining it. My picture of my nieces was a
really good picture and it shows how much I love them and that is a part of the definition
of the word family. My chart was a pretty cool way of showing people all the people in
my family. I talked about everyone in my family even my new little puppy. So in that
aspect I think I did a good job. I didn’t have a lot of words in my PowerPoint. I should
have written more words instead of just pictures. Words help explain things very well,
but pictures do also. It depends on the type of person that you are; some people get more
out of words and some people get more out of pictures. People that get more out of
pictures would probably get more out of my PowerPoint. They would get the definition
of the word “Family”, and they would see how much I love my family.
When I have to make a PowerPoint I try harder to make it interesting than I do for
a regular paper. With a PowerPoint you can do a lot of cooler things to it to make it
interesting. I can have pictures and sounds and that’s just a lot neater than a boring old
paper that has no sound or no pictures. So I think that PowerPoints are better to make
than regular papers. I think that we should continue to write these PowerPoints instead of
papers.
Overall I think I did a good job of creating my PowerPoint.
